The Washington State Biomedical Association recently promoted the upcoming HTM Mixer Northwest at a meeting. TechNation also provided an Amazon Kindle as a door prize for the meeting.
The meeting drew about 70 attendees and included a presentation from Philips Healthcare titled “Secondary alarm notification for improved patient care.”
The meeting was also a chance for members to guide the future of the association with the WSBA officer elections.
The Washington State Biomedical Association is the professional society for the biomedical and clinical engineering community in Washington state. Its purpose is to provide a forum for discussion and education of those who provide technology support to the healthcare community. While the majority of its members are clinical engineers or biomedical equipment technicians, the organization’s members also include hospital safety officers, educators, field service engineers, OEM design engineers, and other related professionals. Although there are corporations that have Institutional Memberships in WSBA, the association is non-commercial, non-political and non-sectarian.
The WSBA has a rich and long history. It was formed in the late 1980s. The WSBA also works closely with its sister organization, the Oregon Biomedical Association.
